The nearest railway station is in Bracknell. The name of the hill is reported[3] to have derived from the surname of a 14th century landowner, Roger Jolyl. This name evolved into "Joyliff's Hill" and then, on Henry Walter's Map of Windsor Forest, 1823,[4] became "Jealous Hill". This changed again to "Jealot's Hill" on John Snare's 1846 map[5] and by the 1920s the modern spelling was established.[3] Syngenta research siteJealott's Hill is home to Syngenta's largest research and development site which includes a large agricultural research greenhouse at {{convert|4000|sqm}} and a {{convert|260|ha|abbr=in|adj=on}} farm. {{As of|2018}}, Syngenta employed around 800 people there.[6] The site was formed in 1927 by the amalgamation of three farms, Hawthorndale, Nuptown and Jealott's Hill itself. Jealott's Hill House was built in 1928 and officially opened on 28 June 1929 as the offices, laboratory and library of Imperial Chemical Industries's Agricultural Research Station; initially the research focused on nitrogen fertilizers in grassland management. In 1936, the Hawthorndale Biological Laboratories were opened in the converted mansion building of the former farm. Research there involved the biological evaluation of chemicals as potential pesticides.[3] The site is now called Jealott's Hill International Research Centre.[6] References1. ^{{cite map|title=Ordnance Survey: Landranger map sheet 175 Reading & Windsor (Henley-on-Thames & Bracknell)|ISBN= 9780319232149 |publisher=Ordnance Survey|date=2012}} 2. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/election-maps/gb/# |title=Ordnance Survey Election Maps|website=www.ordnancesurvey.co.uk |publisher=Ordnance Survey |accessdate=3 April 2016}} 3. ^1 2 {{Cite book|title=Jealott's Hill: Fifty years of Agricultural Research 1928-1978 |editor-first=F.C. |editor-last1=Peacock |last =Peacock | first = F.C. |chapter= Chapter 1: Introduction |pages=1-9 |publisher=Imperial Chemical Industries Ltd. |year=1978 |isbn=0901747017}} 4. ^{{cite web|last=Walter |first=Henry |date=1823|title=A Map Of Windsor Forest And Its Vicinity |url=http://mapco.net/windsor1856/windsor1856.htm|accessdate=18 May 2018}} 5. ^{{cite book|last=Snare |first=John |date=1846|title=Snare's Map of the Country ten miles round Reading |oclc=557234239}} 6. ^1 {{cite web|author=Syngenta |title=Jealott's Hill|url=https://www.syngenta.co.uk/jealotts-hill|website=www.syngenta.co.uk|accessdate=7 April 2018}} External links{{Commons category|Jealott's Hill International Research Station}}{{Berkshire-geo-stub}}{{Bracknell Forest}} 2 : Villages in Berkshire|Bracknell Forest |
